Digital Home Thoughts: Oops! There Go MyTunes

Remember that first piece of advice we were given when learning computers for the first time? Backup....Backup....Backup. Bill Zeller, developer of the popular iTune file swapping plugin MyTunes should have heeded that warning. Due to a recent serious system crash the entire source code for this application was lost! Gone in the blink of an eye. Now, in order to continue development, MyTunes must be completely rewritten from the ground up, as if it never existed. And that is something Zeller says he is not willing to do.

"I was about to release the second version, when I lost everything," Zeller said. "I may put it back online, but there won't be any updates. I don't want to rewrite it."
